Copa Interamericana 1979 (original) (raw)

Unofficial Series

Participants: Olimpia (Asunci�n) [winners Copa Libertadores 1979] Am�rica (Cd. de M�xico) [winners CONCACAF Cup 1977]

After Olimpia had won the Copa Libertadores, they arranged to play Am�rica, winners of the CONCACAF Champions Cup two years before; Am�rica considered themselves the reigning champions of the confederation, although CONCACAF had declared that the 1978 edition, which had not finished properly, was shared between the three regional winners: Universidad Guadalajara for North America, Comunicaciones for Central America, and Defence Force for the Caribbean.

Nevertheless, Am�rica and Olimpia played the first leg in Ciudad de M�xico before CONCACAF declared they did not endorse the series (as Am�rica were not its current champions) one day before the return; thus, in the end the matches were mere friendlies.
